What is the recommended daily biotin pill dosage for treating hair thinning?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
None: There is no recommended dose of biotin for thinning hair. People believe that extra dose of biotin can help them with thier thinning hair but medical studies do not support this. People usually take between 2500-10, 000 mcg per day.
